The prosperity OF labor depends
upon peace. la seasons Of turmoil,
strife aud dissensious, when agita-
ton are prevalent, labor is the FIRST
to experience the evils Of sncli a
condition Of affairs. and the last to
recover from these hancful ini!u-
ences. AS its vitality depends
up0u a harmonious statue Of society.
it should ever. be its object and
aim to disconntenance discord and
contention. It should therefore be
the object and Intent Of those who
wOnIu aspire to prominence in the
ranks Of labor. either as leaders Or
earnest advisers, to keep it in the
direction which is 50 conducive to
its welfare, and avoid tie dangers
that will arise and the evils that
will ensuc from a deviation from its
natural and legitimate sphere. The
principles that are involved in its
existence can not be violated with
impunity if it is allowed to
run counter to them it must fall
sooner Or later. Labor is a pacifica.
tor, and he who advocates u depar-
ture by it from the paths of peace"
or who would advise it to create n
disturbance, is unfit to sustain the
position Of leader, for he is urging
it forward to its own destruction,
and is in reality its worst enemy.

T':se Teachers Institute.

Editor Abbevlle MeTidional.
| promised you. a report Of pro-
ceedings at the Teachers Institute''
at Lafayette, from the 9Th to the
18th Of this present month. At a.
M. Monday, the 9th inst, a party of
seven took hacks from MIR. Dnpre
Bianchct's stables and rolled gayly
away in the early morning air,
famed by the zephyrs and charmed
by the freshness Of a May morn.
We had a ride Of uninterrupted
pleasure, with the exception Of one
incident wherein an undeveloped
pirate Of the plains forced us to pay
a half dollar for the privilege of
passing through his gates. At halt
past eight we alighted at the post
Office in Lafayette, dismissed our
vehicles, procured stopping places,
then HE'D US to the halls of learning.
where we fonnd four professors in
charge, viz: DR.. E. L. Sheib, Presi-
dent; Misses Phillips, Oswald and
Wau,hsly, of the State Normal, at
Natchitoches. AS to the. ability cf
the lecturers. suffice it to say we
came back with views considerably
modified as to our ability as teach
ers. One strong point in all their
lessons is thoroughness make haste
slowly" BE sure that Your pupils
comprehend thoroughly each lesson
before you advance to another.
Nermilion parish was most fatter.
ingly noticed by DR.. Sheib in regard
both to the number and standing Of
its teachers, and in passing they
gave some Of your teachers a prom
isc to hold an Institute in your town
in a short while, perhaps next year,
if it is so desired. We think every
possible step ought to be taken to
secure that end. These institutes"
are rapidly toning up the public
schools Of our country. and If Able
vile can enjoy a weeks lectnring
from Dr.. SIreib and his talented CO.
laborers, it will be a season long to
be remembered. By all means let
us insist on DR.. Sheib's coming to
Abbeville. and the result SO much
to be desired can be secured.

Editor Abbeville Meridionol.l
l hope you will soon have the
railroad to Abbeviile so we can have
the Institution Of Teachers there,
and everybody can see for themselves
the new shorthand method Of teach
ing school. aad when one gets over,
loaded with coneeit, he can have it
distracted without travelling over
land so far. ] am powerful glad
they have repealed the rules of arith-
metic and buried the spelling book
out Of sight, and fonnd short hand
way TO teach reading.
All I'm afraid of is, that educa-
ton will ho so easy, everybody will
conclude its no use to 60 to school,
and schools in general will be abol.
ished and done away with. It's no
trouble to teach geography, provided
you can find coulee deep enough
to II of the water, butsIm puzzled
how to get sand enough to make
them understand a mountain. Arith-
metic is just as easy as nothing, YOU
can take sticks and carry them
through fractions before they'll
know what you're talking about.
/ make no doubt that when you
meet the school boy of hereafter.
and ask him suci, a question as this:
IF you had $4l aud should lose $lS,
how many wonld YOU have lcft?'
He will say: look here. Mister.d
never learned to do my fgnring or
states and blackboards. but if had
my sticks here | could show YOU ex-
actly how the thing is dane.' AM
sure, Mr.. Editor, if you could see
the "short hand way" in it's glory,
you would be ready to sing:
The old methods of reading no longer are
heard,
The ruleso of GRAMMAR IL longerar are feared,
Let us bury the Speliing-book So potent of
wore,
And the sums Of Arithmetic will trouble
us.Ho more. QUIETUS.
